Have you even worked in the real world? There are seminars, business trips, late nights, weekend work, Blackberries, on-call responsibilities, etc. Being a teacher is a cake-walk compared to most corporate jobs and has the slackest schedule of any job, anywhere with very good pay - it's so good in fact they keep paying you for a few decades after you retire!
Is that your argument? My life is harder: waaaaaah. You're worst than an ATA shrill.

Edit: and it's not three months off. More like one and a half go two the summer.
